This function enables the transfer of planned order data from SAP ERP to SAP ME to create a corresponding Repetitive shop order record in SAP ME (see Shop Order).

Note Note

For ERP configuration type C, SAPMEINT also supports update of planned orders (see SAPMEINT: SAP ERP Configuration).

End of the note.

The planned order is an MRP request for the procurement of a particular material at a determined time. It specifies when the inward material movement should be made and the quantity of material that is expected. For repetitive manufacturing, the planned order is not only used for planning purposes but also for producing a particular material.

Integration

Planned orders are sent to SAP ME with Build Quantities. The production supervisor creates SFC numbers for the actual quantity to be built. If a greater quantity of the material is to be built, the production supervisor creates additional SFC numbers for the Repetitive shop order. Base SAP ME functionality allows any quantity to be released to a Repetitive shop order, including a number greater than the build quantity.

Prerequisites

SAP ERP
  • You have created a material master with a production version for the finished product and maintained the settings relevant to repetitive manufacturing in the Logistics module (see Creating Production Versions in the Material Master Record).

    Note Note

    For the production version, you need a BOM, work center, and routing.

    End of the note.
  • You have created a product cost collector in the Controlling module (  Logistics   Production   Repetitive Manufacturing   Master Data   Product Cost Collector   Process Product Cost Collector  ).

  • For configuration type C (see SAPMEINT: SAP ERP Configuration), you have done the following:

    • Verified that all checkboxes in the General screen area of the REM profile are deselected and the Reduce planned orders assigned to version checkbox in the Planned Order Reduction screen area is selected

    • Maintained Data Replication Framework (DRF) filter settings (transaction DRFF)

    • Set up a periodic job for the RDRF_MESSAGE_OUT report that starts for transaction DRFOUT, so that planned orders are immediately distributed at specified times, such as when the opening date of the order becomes the current date.

    • Verified that the opening date is earlier than or equal to the actual date

    For configuration types A and B, you have verified that the GI backflush at GR posting checkbox in the General screen area of the REM profile is selected and the Reduce planned orders assigned to version checkbox in the Planned Order Reduction screen area is deselected.

  • You have set up ALE communication to create and transmit LOIPLO IDocs (see Customizing for ALE for Communication with SAP ME).

    For configuration type C, you have also defined a DRF Replication Model to replicate LOIPLO02 IDocs (in Customizing for Production, choose   Integration with a Manufacturing Execution System   Basic Settings for MES Integration  ).

  • You have defined unique ISO codes for every unit of measure.
